GPCC’s Top Three for April 16-20

The Chamber’s office closed between April 16-20
The Greater Phoenix Chamber will be undergoing some big changes this spring, and we are starting with an office makeover! The Chamber office, located at 201 N. Central Ave. in Phoenix, will be closed for remodeling and renovations, Monday, April 16 through Friday, April 20. The office is scheduled to re-open for business on Monday, April 23.

Just because we are away from our desks, does not mean our staff is taking a break from serving our members. Our team will still be available to answer your questions and provide exceptional customer service via email or over the phone. Please continue to reach out to our team and let us know how we can assist you.
